Haze or Dragon Tail for Milotic?

1 minute read

I’m using a Milotic and I want it to have a move that deals with those pesky boosters. So what is the comparison between the moves Haze and Dragon Tail? What are their pros and cons to each other? And finally, which one would you recommend?

None. Teach it ice beam.

Ice beam is powerful and allows it to hit Pokemon it normally can’t (read: Grass and dragon types). Dragon tail is negative priority, and haze does the exact same role of getting rid of stats but better. Haze is fine I guess, but way better hazers like Toxapex and Galarian Corsola exist. In addition, it needs that grass and dragon coverage to perform well

Out of Haze and Dragon Tail, Haze is the better option, to get rid of any Pokemon who try to set up on you. Dragon Tail may make the opponent switch, allowing you to Toxic the next one coming in, but Haze is just much more useful. However, you should teach your Milotic Ice Beam instead- coverage against Grass and a lot of different types is much more useful than both of these.
